This blog contains all of my own personal thoughts on things, especially things going on in my life. 

My name is Nick. I’m a brand new adult. I’m interested in a wide variety of things. Life, love, music, sports, psychology, etc. Don’t be afraid to ask me questions if you’re curious about something. I do have another blog, and the username is inspirationishopeislove. If you’d like, you can take a gander at that too.</description><title>Aut viam inveniam aut faciam.</title><generator>Tumblr (3.0; @joyisthebestrevenge)</generator><link>http://joyisthebestrevenge.tumblr.com/</link><item><title>I feel so weak.

I should be able to. I&amp;#8217;ve tried to isolate myself from you for months for that reason. I should be fine by now. I thought I was. I was so sure I was okay. And then you showed up to the open house exactly when I did. And everything came back and hit me like a freight train. I want you to be able to be happy with him, because you&amp;#8217;ve moved on. And that makes me happy and sad at the same time, and I respect you for not having as much trouble as I have with it. I don&amp;#8217;t know if I&amp;#8217;ll ever be able to get over you, because in all this time, it doesn&amp;#8217;t seem like I&amp;#8217;ve made any progress at all. But I&amp;#8217;ll let you live your life. I&amp;#8217;m not gonna force myself into it.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://joyisthebestrevenge.tumblr.com/post/51991882541</link><guid>http://joyisthebestrevenge.tumblr.com/post/51991882541</guid><pubDate>Sun, 02 Jun 2013 15:29:48 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>I need to hurry up, get older, get financially secure, find a wonderful girl, marry her, and have...</title><description>&lt;p&gt;I need to hurry up, get older, get financially secure, find a wonderful girl, marry her, and have kids.

And I know I&amp;#8217;m young, and I know that I should be thinking of other things. But I have always wanted a family of my own. I want a wonderful wife and beautiful children. That isn&amp;#8217;t to say that there&amp;#8217;s any way I could not think of my family as beautiful. I have struggled with this for so long. I want to hurry up and meet the girl of my dreams. I think I have. Unfortunate circumstances, however, have caused a large distance. And it&amp;#8217;s been over a year since I have spent any personal time with her. Throughout that year, I have been going to college. I have so much wanted to try to move on. I&amp;#8217;ve tried to convince myself that she doesn&amp;#8217;t want me anymore so maybe I can find someone to love. I made a promise to her telling her that I would not move on until she tells me that she doesn&amp;#8217;t want me anymore. But always, there&amp;#8217;s a voice in my head saying, very simply, &amp;#8220;Wait.&amp;#8221; As a Christian, I cannot think it&amp;#8217;s anything other than God. I&amp;#8217;d like to believe he&amp;#8217;s urging me to wait for that girl, because that would be my dream come true. But even if that isn&amp;#8217;t what he&amp;#8217;s telling me to wait for, I will trust him to do what is right, and I know that whatever he has planned for me will be wildly amazing. &lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://joyisthebestrevenge.tumblr.com/post/39816749200</link><guid>http://joyisthebestrevenge.tumblr.com/post/39816749200</guid><pubDate>Sun, 06 Jan 2013 01:29:01 -0500</pubDate></item><item><title>I had a dream about you last night.</title><description>&lt;p&gt;And what happened in your dream?&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://joyisthebestrevenge.tumblr.com/post/33890686617</link><guid>http://joyisthebestrevenge.tumblr.com/post/33890686617</guid><pubDate>Fri, 19 Oct 2012 08:52:54 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>There could never possibly be anyone else.</title><description>&lt;p&gt;There could never possibly be anyone else.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://joyisthebestrevenge.tumblr.com/post/32170569737</link><guid>http://joyisthebestrevenge.tumblr.com/post/32170569737</guid><pubDate>Sun, 23 Sep 2012 21:40:39 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>If you are a Christian...</title><description>&lt;p&gt;And you use bible verses to condemn homosexuals to hell, you are doing it wrong. Honestly, I&amp;#8217;m on the fence about the issue, I&amp;#8217;m doing research and looking up anything I can from reliable sources to see what I should believe and what God intended. However, God DID NOT intend for us to condemn anyone. Ever. If we have a thief, do we say, &amp;#8220;Oh, well now you&amp;#8217;re going to hell.&amp;#8221; or do we say, &amp;#8220;Thievery is a sin, but we&amp;#8217;re all sinners. I love you as a fellow sinner, and I&amp;#8217;d like to help you.&amp;#8221;? REGARDLESS of whether or not homosexuality is a sin or not, we should still be showing compassion and love to these people, and not the blatant hatred and condemnation that I see so often.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://joyisthebestrevenge.tumblr.com/post/28553085592</link><guid>http://joyisthebestrevenge.tumblr.com/post/28553085592</guid><pubDate>Thu, 02 Aug 2012 08:39:28 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>I think today will be one of the few days I think of how alone I am.</title><description>&lt;p&gt;I think today will be one of the few days I think of how alone I am.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://joyisthebestrevenge.tumblr.com/post/24398445049</link><guid>http://joyisthebestrevenge.tumblr.com/post/24398445049</guid><pubDate>Mon, 04 Jun 2012 07:51:47 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>"I woke dreaming we had broke;

I’ll wake to you, and you never left me.&lt;br/&gt;
